Ingredients

Lamington Bliss Balls

• 1 cup cashews
• ⅓ cup desiccated coconut
• 2-3 tbsp maple syrup (or rice malt syrup)
• 2 tbsp coconut oil
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 12 whole raspberries (fresh or frozen)

Chocolate Coating

• 2 tbsp maple syrup
• 2–3 tbsp cacao powder or cocoa powder
• 2–3 tbsp coconut oil, melted
• 1 cup desiccated coconut, for rolling

Instructions

Lamington Bliss Balls

1. Place cashews and coconut into a food processor and blitz until fine crumbs form.
2. Add maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla. Process until mixture comes together.
3. Transfer mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm slightly.
4. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions, flatten gently, place a raspberry in the centre and carefully wrap mixture around it.
5. Place on a lined tray and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. Mix maple syrup, cacao powder and coconut oil in a small bowl until smooth.
7. Dip each ball into chocolate using two forks, then roll in coconut.
8. Return to the fridge until firm.

Notes

Top Tips

• Chill first: Chilling the mixture before rolling makes shaping much easier and less sticky.
• Don’t squash: Gently wrap the mixture around the raspberry to keep the centre intact.
• Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
